Fantasy Cricket Tips for IN-W vs SA-W 1st ODI
Fantasy Cricket Tips for IN-W vs SA-W 1st ODI

The first ODI between India Women and South Africa Women takes place at the Bharat Ratna Atal Bihari Vajpayee Stadium in Lucknow on Sunday.

The Indian Women are back in action for the first time since the resumption of cricket post COVID. The Indians are well-prepared and well-equipped to take over the Proteas challenge in the white-ball format. Led by Mithali Raj, the Indian team has a well-balanced unit, with Smriti Mandhana and Jhulan Goswami being the key to their fortunes in this format.

South Africa Women come into this series on the back of a relatively successful white-ball series against Pakistan. With a few youngsters also itching to make a mark, South Africa are certainly a force to reckon with in subcontinent conditions. The good form of Laura Wolvaardt and Marizanne Kapp only increases their chances of a win in the series opener.

Although the Indians lack match practice as a unit, they are the odds-on favorites to come up with the win on Sunday. However, they will be wary of Sune Luus and Co, who are capable of upsetting the applecart.

All in all, a cracking game of cricket beckons in Lucknow, with both teams looking to land the first blow in what promises to be an entertaining series.

Pitch Report

Spin is expected to have a huge say in the proceedings at this venue. While the pacers will get the ball to move around in the early exchanges, the pitch should slow down as the match progresses.

The batters will need to bide their time in the middle, with wickets in hand being the key. Either side would want to bat first and make the most of the conditions upfront. 200-220 should be a competitive total, although both teams can breach the par score with relative ease.
